NEWS – February 2018

Adrian Mathews has a video blog with well over 100 videos – Vlad’s Vlog. On 22 April 2018, it won the prize for best “Experimental Film” at the Beaugency Film Festival in France. On Wednesday 15 August it was featured in La Renaissance Lochoise, following an interview with Adrian Mathews. Click here to view the article.

“Discover Vlad’s Vlog, the diary of a rural flaneur. Short, rambling, incidental videos of negligible importance recording trivial details in the lives of Vlad, his dog Marlowe, and whatever unwitting extras happen to get in the way of the camera. The action and inaction take place in Touraine, central France.” Vlog posts are in French, subtitled in English.
